Biography
Joseph DiLeo was born in Jersey City, New Jersey, United States in 1981 to a family of Italian descent. DiLeo became involved in criminal activities at a young age, and he was arrested in 1998 for grand theft auto at the age of 17. DiLeo became an enforcer for the Pegorino crime family of the New Jersey American Mafia, and he sought to rise through the ranks after working as a small-time criminal for years. In 2001, he was arrested for promoting gambling, and he was again arrested in 2004 for armed robbery.

In 2008, DiLeo, Luca Silvestri, and Johnny Barbosa were sent by Ray Bocino to dress up as trash collectors and collect several garbage bags filled with stolen diamonds. They performed this task together with Niko Bellic, and Silvestri began to plot against Bellic; he figured that the mobsters could steal and sell the diamonds and divide the money amongst themselves, while they would blame the theft on Bellic. However, Boccino trusted Niko, and Niko Bellic chased the mobsters from their Battery Park hideout to Central Park. There, the mobsters engaged in a shootout with Bellic, who killed all of the mobsters.
